I listened to them until Cliff passed. I still listen to those albums a lot. I never take much interest in a bands background or private life, but was Cliff a part of the composing? Because they stopped with the things I like most about their music after he was gone. Like the music sometimes painting the story as well as the words did.

Living in Dallas, Texas at the time, I remember the night the radio station ZRock went off the air. I was working 3rd shift that night and at 2am, the last song ZRock aired was Metallica's Fade to black. I parked my patrol car, turned up the radio and just listened to the song. As the song neared it's end, I had tears in my eyes. The song faded out and all that was left was silence. Not static. I sat in that patrol car and cried. It was the end of a era and no better song could have capped off the end. I will forever remember that moment when I listen to this song. After all these years, if I catch this in the middle of the night, I still get a little emotional.

A "ballad" in their earlier years. Metallica wrote "Fade To Black" after their equipment was stolen. The band was scheduled to play a show in Boston on January 14, 1984. The truck with their gear got their first, and when their road crew looked for it the next morning, it was gone. They had to cancel the show and postpone a planned tour of Europe.

@dmwalker24 3 месяца назад

I love 'Nothing Else Matters', and I think we can all agree, this is an entirely different thing. Depending on my mood when asked, this is possibly my favorite Metallica song, and undoubtedly one of the best they ever created. It is structured a little unusually, and it is completely unapologetic about it. The structure is actually similar to One where there is a verse/chorus section, but then a gear change into a more intense (mostly) instrumental section running all the way to the end.

This is probably my favorite song by them.. it's my dad's too. I remember doing a project in high school and I had to print out the lyrics for the song. When I was telling my dad what I needed it for he asked if it was gonna be appropriate for school. And I got kinda confused and he asked if I knew what it was about... I knew a lot of the lyrics but until then I never really put the pieces together.. I was always just lost in the instrumental.. since then it's only gotten more impactful and helped with some pretty dark times. If anything had a chance against this one it would be Sanitarium(welcome home)

First of all, great reaction video. Secondly, the Late Cliff Burton was NOT the Original Bassist, he was actually the SECOND Bassist.

It was a bunch of weed smoke and white women that led me to find out....there's soul in all genres in music if you find the right music.

one of the greatest songs ever wrote imo.....from a musicians standpoint, this was in 84/85....i saw them live during this tour with Armored Saint and Wasp, in a standing room only club called the Sherwood here in indianapolis........i was standing literally 3ft from Cliff Burton their orginal bassist....these guys were doing this at a time when this was WIDELY considered "way too fast and heavy".....its stood the test of time cause its still relevant today

Ride the Lightning was originally titled “Metal Up Your Ass,” but the producers would not let them release that title as it was to graphically obscene. The cover art was a toilet with an ornately thrash metal type dagger coming up out of it. True story, after first hearing and falling in love with the band in 1988 I talked my mom into letting me pierce my left ear (a piercing in the right ear was considered a statement of homosexuality at the time.) The girl who did it told me to leave the studio in for two weeks but the very next day I replaced it with a hanging dagger almost exactly like the one in the cover art previously described. I felt like such a skater punk.

As a kid, this was my mom’s favorite song and so I heard it a lot. I didn’t understand it, just knew it sounded good. As an adult, I think it’s the greatest metal song of all-time.
